11th acrps Conference

On 30 and 31 March 2023 the 11th acrps conference will be held. 

The acrps conference is thus celebrating its 20th anniversary.

The acrps is an international conference and the worldwide largest of its kind specifically on the subject of a.c. rail power supply. Every two years since 2003 this conference has regularly attracted more than 500 experts from railway companies, infrastructure managers, consulting companies and authorities from Europe and 
beyond in Leipzig (DE).

In 2021, the conference had to take place digitally for the first time due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The organizers hope that acrps 2023 will take place live as usual before the pandemic. Digital participation will still be possible.

The conference, attended by both decision-makers and technical experts, provides information about new industry trends as well as a forum to exchange information among experts.

Topics of the acrps 2023 conference will be:

• Projects
• Electric traction power supply
• Energy
• Overhead contact lines
• BEMU charging infrastrukture
• Earthing and the return circuit

The topics deal with both AC 15 kV 16,7 Hz and AC 25 kV 50 Hz for railways.
The conference program will be complemented by a panel discussion.

The conference language is German. Simultaneous translation into English will be provided, both on site and via live stream.

With a (safety) distance, the anniversary edition of acrps took place on June 9th and 10th, 2021 in Leipzig. Where up to 550 experts meet in normal times, the number of participants had to be severely limited for the tenth edition.

While speakers and moderators were mainly following the international conference on site, around 450 participants were able to use the live stream. 20 lectures were offered, which were already published this year or will be published as an essay in the eb.

Even if the conference, the live stream of which was also broadcast abroad in two languages, went without any technical problems, many participants wish that acrps 2023 can again take place as a face-to-face event. This is planned for March 30th and 31st, 2023.
